Whether you were prepared for what happened, you’re hurting right now and its a good thing to reach out. Perhaps your life has turned upside down, throwing you into shock or numbness. You’re overcome with many emotions: confusion, anger, deep sadness. And if you have kids, you’re having to shoulder their grief, too. It’s heartbreaking, frustrating, and overwhelming. When you’re untethered from the world you used to know, it can feel impossible to get your bearings. Some days, even getting out of bed feels like a herculean task. Life is out of control, and you need help to find your center and a “new normal.”

During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back.

My clients come to me with a myriad of issues that have been impacting their quality of life and functioning. Many struggle with everyday issues of stress related conditions, including trauma related issues, and other depressed and anxious moods causing them to feel overwhelmed, depressed, anxious, and with panic attacks. These overwhelming intense emotions cause a disruption in their lives, making it difficult to achieve day to day life functions, and make simple decisions about how to move forward in their lives. These patterns of intrusive thoughts and emotions is what leads them to therapy, and where I am able to help them.
